Call for Papers - Global Social Venture Research Conference
"Global Harmony and Local Social Entrepreneurship"
19 – 23 November, 2009 Shanghai, China
Co-Sponsored by the Global Management Education Institute of Shanghai University, The Center for Urban Entrepreneurship & Economic Development of Rutgers University, and The University of International Business and Economics-Beijing
About the Global Social Venture Research Conference
The Global Social Venture Research Conference engages business and organization scholars in a discussion of social entrepreneurship theory and practice. The aim of this conference is to bring together various international perspectives on social entrepreneurship from scholars and practitioners together for discussion and collaboration. The theme of the conference is "Global Harmony and Local Social Entrepreneurship" which acknowledges the role of social entrepreneurs in creating a "Harmonious Society".
Following Robinson, Mair, and Hockers (2009), we define social entrepreneurship broadly:
'Social entrepreneurship is recognized as encompassing a wide range of activities: enterprising individuals devoted to making a difference; social purpose business ventures dedicated to adding for-profit motivations to the nonprofit sector; new types of philanthropists supporting venture capital-like 'investment' portfolios; and nonprofit organizations that are reinventing themselves by drawing on lessons learned from the business world.'
In the past decade 'social entrepreneurship' has made a popular name for itself on the global scene as a "new phenomenon" that is reshaping the way we think about social value creation. Some of these practices are uniquely new however many have been around for a long time having finally reached critical mass under a widely endorsed label. (Robinson, Mair, & Hockerts, 2009:i)
By integrating social goals and social problem solving into the core business model, social entrepreneurs are making social impacts globally. From our perspective, the business model of social entrepreneurial ventures (or social ventures) simultaneously creates economic and social value. This has great societal benefits.
Social entrepreneurship has garnered increased attention in the academy because of its multidisciplinary attractiveness as well as its impact on governments, communities, and organizations. However, there is a paucity of research that has untangled the founding process of social ventures, the strategies that are used by social entrepreneurs, and the challenges of managing a social venture in different institutional contexts.This is of particular interest in the Chinese context where social entrepreneurship is an emerging phenomenon to achieve social goals.
We invite scholars across disciplines to join us in Shanghai to present papers and projects related to any of the following areas or related topics:
(1) Role of social entrepreneurs in the construction process of the harmonious society;
2) Role of institutions to promote social entrepreneurship
3) Structure, innovation, and impact of social ventures
4) Social entrepreneurship in Asia
5) International comparisons of social entrepreneurship
6) Creation and management of green or clean technology
7) The use of entrepreneurship to address social problem solving
Other Presentations
Additionally, conference sessions will also take place related to the following topics.
- Innovative educational practices for social entrepreneurship
- Case studies related to the themes
- Working papers related to the topics and themes

The IAEB 9th ANNUAL CONFERENCE (Hyatt Regency Waikiki, Honolulu, Hawaii, April 9-12, 2009) OUTSTANDING RESEARCH PAPERS:
(The papers -- listed below in alphabetical order, first author's last name, and NOT rank-ordered-were recognized as "outstanding" by the reviewers largely on the basis of their research inquiries and/or methodologies. Initially, 9 papers were identified for possible recognition. Since the objective was to select 3 top papers, the 9 papers were sent out again for further review. At this second phase of reviews, 6 papers received high rankings, some with similar rankings. Because the reviewers did not have access to all the papers for comparison, the Academy does not to rank the papers. Instead, we simply identify the top ranking papers.)
